yEw.HAmpSHIRE INSURANCE SYSTEM


When what is known as the Valued Pofcy In
.urance law was before the New-Hampshire Leglsla-
tire two years ago, and the Legislature was warned
liar sbould IL become a law the outside insurance
comnanies would withdraw their business from the
state this warning treated IA mere Idle threat
made Tor effect, and the supporters OF tho valued
policv I'LL charged that the companies were simply
endes, oring 20 4" bluff tho Legislature. The bill
became a law. aud the companios withdrew. Inc
frenda q, the law then cheeruy assured the people
that Ne-v-Hampshire was aDuLdantiy able TO lako
care of herse To do this lsttor several small IN
surance companies we're 0rganHed "hGh nave 'ahoh
a large number OF small risks This policy OF taking
small risks necessary one, the INSURANCE gwen
Nas 10 be good for anything at all since the capita
of the compane, small. with small companies
taking but small risks, there has, however, been
good deal of property which has not been insured
During tbs first year OF tha operation OF inc Ia" theo
was much less number CT fires than had occurred In
previous years. Tho tact that very many property
owners had no INSURANCE, or at the most but small
insurance on their property, undoubtedly led to
create care than had been formerly exercised to pre-
venI fres The experience OF the first ycai led the
nnd %, the new law TO declare that IL was great
success and the fact that the New-Iiampshire com
uanies had promptly paid such losses as had been
su.taned and at the sane time had made money, was
cited as furnishing ample proof that Now Hampshire
was abundantly able to take care OF herself III IN just
nossible that this cxultaton has been little too pre-
yyious The disastrous CONGREGATIONS which have
occurred In the state during this week will have the
effect of testing the States abnty in the line OF IN
surng itself and will also test the strength OF the
ANAL insurance companies. The losses aggregate
nearly 100000. but II Is not probable that moro
than 4i5O 900 OF this loss Il covered by insurance
This will be a serious strain upon the resources OF the
com panles and the large amount OF loss for which
tbere "a no insurance will do much toward raising the
question whether New Hampshire 10 really in posi-
ton to do her own tnsuring.

THE LIFE INSURANCE TAX.
soME srk1kIve CONSIDERATIONS.

To the Rditof OF rae TfibunE
SIR: The bill advocated by the Insurance Department
repeating the imposed policies Of life insurance by
the act $780, has attracted not much because
Of any principle involved because OF the curious con-
test ever II between friends Of the odlne "leve
premium companies and friends Of the cooperative or
assessment companies The latter party tried TO afned
the bill in Assembly, to relieve their own eonpa-
les and leave the regular companies without legislative
aid so that the Controller might them ihe would
for seven years OF back taxes and penalties When the
amendment adopted, after confused discussion, the
odliners voted down the whole bill. This brought the
assessment back to their sde both parties Joined
hnnds in restoring the bill to Its first FORM relieving oil
policy holders, and the bill was passed.
1t has been said that tho companies have largo inter
est in passing tho h but this will probably be found to
be mistake Tho EConstitution expressly requires that
every law imposing continuing any tax shall state
what the money Is to DO used for Tho act OF 1880 has
not word the subject. Several acts havo been pro-
nounccd unconstitutional and void for this defect and
every Controller and every Attorney In tho
last years agreed that this aets OF the Same
character The decision Of the Court of Appeals in the
Macpherson case, that the Collateral Inheritance Tax
law Of 1855 Is valid In spite Of an imperfect specification
of tho purpose OF the tax proceeds the ground
that the tax in question is not one OF tho annually recur
ring taxes OF the amount of which estimate can be
made beforehand But the life insurance tax Is very
different in this respect being annual and substantially
detcrmnate in amount. II q common-sense view OF
technical question Of law Is OF value, the opinions
and practice the officers for the last years
are not in much danger OF being overturned by the
courts and the superintendent OF Insurance may dismiss
all fears that of his companies will be made bank
rupt 10y the exactiou from them of the long accunula
ions of arrears which this act II valid would call for
Whether life insurance policies ought TO he specially
taxed Is fair question for the wisdom OF the Legisla-
ture But If they ought TO be taxed, md are not now
bearing fair share OF the burdens OF government GER
airy the tax ought to be levied by the cOnsdcratc act
Of the legislature with fair notice to the parties inter
ested and not by judicial construction Of an old
md forgotten statute The notion OF collecting back
taxes for seven years of institutions which no officer
81 the State has supposed liable to the burden sayors TOO
much OF an or post flcto law. l.

Captain Walker it will be remembered, commanded
part OF Lees army its retreat from Petersburg,
and was wounded ct Aptomattox Bridge the day
before the surrender His injuries were supposed to
be mortal at the time, and the ball has given him
gore OF ess serious trouble ever since The noison
made by the surgeons yesterday was about three
inches long and three or four inches deep, and the
o,eraton was performed without the aid OF chloro-
form, at tho patients instance.
The ball was so firmly embedded that 1t required
considerable force 1t. Ii Was found to be
split from its apex almost down to its base, and In
the split Is portion ct Captain Walkers hipeo az
firmly Gxed as the filing OF tooth. When the ball
etruc tho bore il was detected do inward to which
circumstance Captain Walker owes the preservation
OF his ne lie was highly congratulated by the
